Lux Mundi

66 cm X 96 cm
acrylic on canvas
Lux Mundi is literally, the Light of the World, and is one of the many honorifics of Christ. In this work 'light' becomes a metaphor for all that is well-meaning, good and beautiful in the world today. But where on the one hand this virtue stands out amid all that is bad, mean and ugly, it also has to pay the price of being so... by having to bleed like the original Lux Mundi.
